Email Shortening Prompt

Cut the length of any email in half without losing the key message. Ideal for busy professionals who want to communicate faster and more clearly.

The prompt

Rewrite the following email to be roughly half the length without losing any important information or changing the tone. Keep it professional and direct:

{{email}}

Works in ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and other assistants. Replace the highlighted placeholders with your own content.

How to use it

Paste the draft at {{email}}. The prompt cuts the length while keeping the request and any deadline. Compare the short version with your original to make sure nothing important was dropped.

Tips for better results

  • Tell it the recipient (manager, client, stranger) so the tone stays right.
  • Ask for the ask to be in the first sentence.
  • If it still feels long, run it again with a target such as “under 80 words.”
